Don't encroach on the green site to build houses.
USE/BUILD ON BROWN FIELD SITES.
Before the Swan Estate was built we frequently used to see hedgehogs, 10+ species of butterflies, damselflies and a variety of other insects and about 15 species of garden birds. NOW THERE IS VERY LITTLE WILDLIFE.
Increase in traffic has decimated the hedgehog population, trees and wild habitats have been destroyed.
GREEN spaces are vital for wildlife, ecology, and the welfare of the planet
INCLUDING HUMAN BEINGS
Heights Lane is NARROW and treacherous to walk on,as traffic speeds.
There is no way of widening the roundabout at Park Road, there are houses on both sides. This would be the artery from any new houses to the school- deplorably dangerous.
Traffic-calming has been implemented in Eldwick as the number of houses, and cars, has escalated, it makes no sense to exacerbate this problem.
DON'T TRASH OUR GREEN BELT.
